Cleona Blue 8' x 10' Rug

Due to the thick, lush pile of a shag rug, we recommend using a vacuum with the beater bar turned off or using a high-pile setting to prevent the long fibers from becoming tangled or damaged. For a deep refresh, our care guide suggests shaking the rug outdoors to dislodge deeply embedded dust and debris. Because this rug is power-loomed from durable synthetic yarns, it is designed to maintain its flowing dimension and soft texture with regular, gentle maintenance.

This rug is constructed from polypropylene, a synthetic fiber specifically chosen for its exceptional durability and natural stain resistance. Unlike natural fibers that may absorb spills, polypropylene's non-porous nature makes it moisture-resistant and easier to spot-clean. While the shag texture provides a posh underfoot feel, placing it in living rooms or bedrooms—rather than high-moisture mudrooms—will help preserve the integrity of the "west coast aesthetic" for years to come.

An 8' x 10' rug is a versatile, foundational size that works well in multiple settings. In a living room, it is large enough to sit under the front legs of a sofa or sectional, effectively anchoring the seating area and making the room feel more cohesive. For a bedroom, this size is ideal for placing under a queen or king bed, allowing for about two feet of soft, luxurious pile to extend on either side, providing a comfortable landing for your feet every morning.

One of the primary benefits of using durable synthetic yarns is that they are virtually non-shedding. Unlike wool shag rugs, which can lose fibers significantly during the first few months of use, this power-loomed rug is engineered to keep its lush density intact without the constant need for cleanup. This makes it a preferred choice for shoppers who want the high-pile look without the high-maintenance shedding associated with natural materials.

Polypropylene is an ideal material for humid or coastal regions because it is naturally resistant to mold and mildew. Unlike cotton or wool, which can trap moisture from the air and develop a damp smell, synthetic fibers dry quickly and remain bright and beautiful year after year. This makes the Cleona collection a smart choice for maintaining a fresh, casual atmosphere in homes where local humidity is a factor.

Yes, a synthetic shag rug can be an excellent addition to a family home. The power-loomed construction ensures that the fibers are securely anchored, while the polypropylene material is resistant to common household stains and odors. While the high pile is incredibly soft for children to play on, pet hair tends to sit on the surface of synthetic yarns rather than weaving into the fibers, making it easy to remove with a standard upholstery attachment.
